    Description

    Elvan Stone is a special kind of aggregate soil that we've discovered that adds amazing benefits to any bonsai soil it is mixed into. Since not too many people know about it, we call it the "bonsai soil secret"!
    This is for bonsai trees that are grown in areas with low to moderate water quality. It will help clean out any impurities in it and prevent root rot.
    Elvan Stone is a type of mineral adamantine stone that is commonly found in deep valleys in various parts of Asia. Often used as an important ingredient in Eastern Medicine for its high amount of beneficial minerals and water purifying qualities. House of Bonsai has tested it for many years in various bonsai soil mixes on our own trees. Based on our bonsai experience, we noticed that when Elvan Stone was added, it boosted the health of the overall tree. It was especially noticed in evergreen and conifer-type bonsai such as junipers and pines to give a more vibrant green color and give brighter hues in fall foliage color-changing types such as maples. How it's able to do this is by strengthening the tree’s root system. With long-term use, you’ll notice more of the fine feeder roots; which are more valued in bonsai cultivation.
    This small grain is about 1/8 - 3/8 inch in size. It will weigh approximately 18 lbs.
    It could be used as a mix into any bonsai soil recipe that you may use or add on top as a topsoil dressing to give a uniform gray appearance for a more polished visual appearance. Since only a small quantity (about 5% - 10% of any bonsai soil recipe) is needed to dramatically improve your bonsai tree's health, we will package this in a USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate Medium Box for you to try at home.
